"concatenation" - connects strings and string expressions.

(can be used if preceded by a space)

Strings must be enclosed in double quotes. Consider the following example:


"Ms." + Last_Name

When MapInfo Pro evaluates this as part of an expression it places "Ms. "in front of each last name. Note that the string constant ("Ms. ") is in quotes. Similarly,


"Hello," + "world"

gives you "Hello, world." And


"4"+"5"

gives you "45."
